Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Duffield, VA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Duffield would include detox services that are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
